Using Live TV on Unraid Docker

Hi all. I have an Unraid server with the hauppauge QuadHD tuner installed. I also have Unraid DVB edition installed (includes linux drivers for tuners). The server recognises all four tuners and I have passed it through to the official plex docker as described in the linked article. I'm running the plex pass version and wanted to know if Live TV and DVR will be supported in the setup soon? Other dockers such as TVHeadEnd work like this.

Not sure whether your card is supported, but it should just work this way. You might want to connect to your docker and see that the dvb devices actually exist.

docker exec -ti [plex] /bin/bash

where [plex] is the name of your docker instance. This should drop you into a root shell within your docker. Now do:

ls /dev/dvb

This should show some 'adapter' directories, if not you haven't forwarded your card correctly.

When logs (server or client app) are requested for an investigation, please do NOT turn on "verbose" logging unless it is explicitly requested. Verbose logging makes things much more difficult in the majority of cases.
